  • Denmark: Practitioners’ Performance is Very Successful at the Aarhus Cultural Festival

    On the last day, our performance attracted the attention of a photographer from the biggest newspaper in Denmark. He said that he would put the picture of our fan dance on the front page. The biggest TV station in Jutland, “Denmark TV Channel 2”, also interviewed practitioners during the festival. The three days of activities were very successful.
  • Spain: Practitioners held a Press Conference to Expose Jiang Zemin’s Crimes

  • Norway: Clarifying the Facts and Promoting Falun Gong in Sandefjord

    There were many people who said they’d never heard of Falun Gong before. They wanted to learn the exercises and asked practitioners where they could take part in a Falun Gong introduction course.

  • UK: Around 1,000 People Enjoyed the Falun Gong Performance at Brighton Art Festival

    Two days after the Art Festival, the organiser congratulated the practitioners on their performance. In the meantime, the practitioners were invited to take part in another Art Festival. No doubt this is another great opportunity to let more people know about Falun Dafa, the practice based on Truthfulness, Kindness and Tolerance, and the brutal persecution of practitioners in China.
  • Austria: Practitioners get together to Study the Fa and Send Forth Righteous Thoughts

    From August 8th to 10th, Austrian practitioners gathered together to study Zhuan Falun [the main text of Falun Gong], send forth righteous thoughts and share their thoughts and understandings with one another. On Sunday morning, the practitioners demonstrated the Falun Gong exercises in Amstetten Park, where a practice site is to be set up in the near future.
  • Falun Gong practitioners in Germany will Sue Jiang Zemin Under German International Criminal Law

    Immediately after Belgian Falun Gong practitioners filed a lawsuit against Jiang Zemin for crimes of torture, crimes against humanity and genocide, the former Chinese leader, who is directly responsible for the persecution of Falun Gong, will face another similar lawsuit in Germany. This will be Jiang’s second experience as a defendant in Germany. In April 2002, during Jiang’s visit to Germany, German human rights organisation “The Society for Threatened People” sued Jiang for crimes against humanity and crimes of torture.
  • Slovakia: Celebrating Falun Gong Week by Touring Several Cities

    Many people stopped and silently watched the exercises, read information about the persecution and signed a petition to bring dictator Jiang Zemin, who started the persecution of Falun Gong practitioners, to justice. Sometimes there was even a queue of people, both young and old, waiting to sign the petition.
  • UK: Practitioners Celebrate the First UK Falun Dafa Day with the People of Birmingham

    'Pedestrians soon crowded around them to watch the performance. Whenever each performance was finished, they would applaud enthusiastically. They were very interested when the practitioners demonstrated the exercises.

  • Germany: Calling for the Rescue of Xiong Wei during Mainz Information Day

    Those who wanted to help Xiong Wei could sign a petition that will be submitted to the German Chancellor Her Schroder. Those who wanted to personally encourage Xiong Wei could write a postcard and send it to her in custody.
  • UK: Fifth UK Falun Dafa Experience Sharing Conference Held in Birmingham

    Practitioners who gave speeches used their personal experience and understanding in the Fa-rectification cultivation to discuss how to pay attention to coordination and cooperation, how to improve as a whole, give up egotism and keep up with the process of Fa-rectification. After the conference, the practitioners expressed that the conference achieved the goal of encouraging each other to strive forward together.
  • Belgium: Falun Gong Practitioners in Brussels hold a “Big Trial” of Jiang Zemin

    The “Sue Jiang Trial” featured many Dafa practitioners who have suffered brutal persecution at the hands of Jiang’s regime, playing their real selves. Among them were Chinese practitioners who have been through cruel persecution in Chinese labour camps, and western practitioners who received ill-treatment just for peacefully calling for an end to the persecution and going to Tiananmen Square.
  • Holland: Dafa is Warmly Welcomed in Gorichem

    The people of Holland were amazed by our graceful exercises and watched carefully with great interest. They were shocked when they read in the leaflets about Jiang Zemin’s persecution against Falun Gong. In their hearts, they must have wondered, if Jiang Zemin persecuted people who believed in Truthfulness, Compassion and Forbearance then what did he believe in?
  • “Berlingske Tidende” (Danish newspaper): Letter to the Editor – Four Years of Persecution

    'There is documented evidence on the untimely death of at least 760 Falun Gong practitioners caused by the regime’s brutal persecution. Sources inside the Chinese government, however, say that it is over 7000. In total, over forty types of state-sanctioned torture methods, including mass rape and other sexual violations of female practitioners, are only part of the harsh realities that Chinese Falun Gong practitioners are facing.'
  • Sweden: Practitioner’s Speech Celebrating the 5th Year of Falun Dafa in Kalmar

    Five years ago in August 1998, more than thirty Kalmar citizens joined the city’s first Falun Gong class. We, Falun Gong practitioners in Kalmar, are very grateful to have the opportunity to practise the exercises freely in Kalmar City Park, unlike out fellow practitioners in China. On the 9th August, we celebrated the fifth anniversary.
